Hi, if your on the Isle of Wight, your technically offshore, so your posting in the correct bit.

Welcome, what sort of boats do you build, powered I would imagine as you've joined this forum.

Tell us a bit about them, and post some photo's!

Hi,
thank for the welcome.

my company has been going for 2.5 years and we have only made one race boat, the K4+ 6.5 twin tapered stepped rib. we have made lots of other boats but not as the new company.

we have made moulds for sunseaker, panels for marks and Spencer, jockie seats and benchseats for avon and ring,

we also have a new unit in the making witch is a large centre console for the 8.5+ rib witch is a cabin for shelter from the elements.

we are making high wide back bucket seats with stability handles. also a lower back witch has gone in a rollercoatser ride.

made bodykits, bumpers and spoilers for most cars.

we have repaired speed boats and race boats to insurance standards.

i have many pics what did you want to see?

I'm confused...

Are you Adam?

Or do you work for/ with them?

Welcome BTW. Great to see a genuine new person!!!

(But don't expect them to be nice over here. They give me an awful time of it.)

Now if it's a spin in a RIB you want there's lotsa friendly Ribsters over here

Might be worth joining RIBNET as that boat really appealed to Ribsters,
